Downtown Redmond

The Excitement is Building...

as the Downtown Redmond neighborhood transforms into a vibrant urban center. Pairing new residential and commercial building with classic historic spaces, and then adding a connected street grid with 2-way travel lanes, and variety of cultural and recreational opportunities, Redmond will continue to evolve as the place people desire to live, work, play and invest. While occasional disruptions to roads and street work will accompany the vision, the end result will yield a Downtown core easier to navigate by foot, bike and transit, and a place that supports local businesses enjoying a strong economy and lively atmosphere.
